Where are the capes and cloaks?
Capes and cloaks fit Geralt so much, I'm actually surprised they're not in the game already. Now, I know this is a very minor and personal thing, but adding them, in my opinion, would make the game much better. Geralt would look even cooler than he already does.

With all his rolling and pirouette(ing) wouldn't a cape just get in the way? Witcher's seem to rely on their agility and speed above all else they arent Knights.

No, I'm not gonna mess around this much with the game files. I don't want to break my game and end-up losing a 25 hour save. Haven't CD Projekt RED released a mod toolkit? Why does one have to go through all of that to install a single mod?

Capes get heroes killed. Things grab them, jet engine air intakes suck them up, etc. Capes are bad. No capes.

If you dont want to use that mods then maybe try these but you need three mods in order to use it Debug Console Enabler [www.nexusmods.com] Debug Console Extensions [www.nexusmods.com] and Retextures for AMM [www.nexusmods.com] just get your files needed in AMM and dont worry your game will not be break just by using Hood and Cape mods since I already tested it and used it.

backup your saves

Capes are really really bad for someone who relies soley on mobility in combat:

He'd just end up tripping over himself (and that's very bad when your fighting monsters).

Trailers always go for what looks coolest, you know that.

Of course it didn't hamper his movement, he took it off before fighting them. =D
Get Ursine Armor, it is the closest to a cape in the game and be happy playing your style.

That mod is awesome dude you are only editing lines of text nothing can go wrong with your game just follow the instructions and if you want can always backup the text files you are editing/saves. And the customisation, capes especially (plus the HUGE amount of editing other than clothing you can do to your character) really complement his armour.

The only problem is the clipping with the swords but it really isn't so bad unless viewed from the side, only the hilt's show usually.

It looks pretty good (apart from the clipping, understandable though). I just have one problem with it. It's TOO short. I don't know if you've ever played a modded Skyrim before, but if you have, then you've probably installed the most popular capes mod (Cloaks of Skyrim). With that mod come these capes:

These capes ALMOST touch the ground, these make you look like a true badass. The cape you're using, you can see Geralt's boots.

Ya especially when you show up in novigrad where it seems a cloak or hood would be of use in order to stay under the radar
